Embroidery

This little boat I embroided this past summer, but I never got around to finish it into some object.. So I've turned it into a pillow now! Not very creative, but it's always better than hidding it unfinished and out of sight in some box! ;)


This is a little needle book I made, it's 1:1 scale, not 1:12. I really needed a needle book since I often take my needles with me and I always loose my needles and pins that way!
It took me a horribly long time to finish up this little book, I whipstitched it all around to put the front and back together and it really feels like doing the same thing 3 times over >_> but I'm so happy with the result!

the reason I haven't blogged for so long

The reason is that I had a big summer break from school. And I have to use my computer a lot for school, so when the summer break from school started, I turned off my computer.... and only turned it on every now and then to check my mail or something quick like that.
I've had a wonderfully lazy summer, the weather wasn't great but that doesn't really matter much. I started cross stitching again, because it's so time consuming I usually only do it when I have days and days of free time. Here is one of the things I made, a scissor fob and a biscornu in the making. I also made some 1:12 cross stitchings, but I'll show those later ;)
